Evangelical and Fundamentalist Christians have often taken issue with the band's many songs about drugs (e.g. "Sister Morphine", "Mother's Litle Helper") and perceived references to Satanism such as "Sympathy for the Devil."

In their prime they rivalled the popularity of the [[Beatles]] and continue to sell out stadiums almost half a century later.
